You don't list any treatments on your treatment page. What are you on Rebecca, and what side effects are you having?

And in the hope it may be of some comfort, this video can be reassuring: ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvQXygHtYzc) you'll find dozens and *dozens* of inrformative videos no all aspects of living with MS -- highly recommended!

To make a long story short I went to primary and they didn't take me serious after some tests came back good so I had a appt with my neurosurgeon and mentioned my symptoms he mentioned possibility of being Spondylosis with myelitis or MS ..mentioned again while having symptoms to primary and surgeon mentioning MRI so they finally supported me getting MRI to test for lesions and found some diagnosed and now referring me to Ms neurologist ..Idk what to expect or what to do ..so I came here 😁🤷 just taking it one day at a time .I will look at these links amd appreciate so much your response !

Who diagnosed you Rebecca? It typically takes a neurologist to diagnose someone with MS.

Since you'll soon see a neurologist, please *prepare* for your visit! Dr. Boster gives a *bunch* of tips about dealing with neurologists in these videos: ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkQopiiFbAo0zS...).

In particular, one video which advises to write down questions you have on 2 pieces of paper, one for you and the other to give to the doctor. The doctor's code of ethics will mean he'll be sure to answer them.

I've found that works so well I use it for *every* doctor's visit I go to. That way, no matter which way the visit goes and what is talked about, the doctor will answer those questions.
